CNN's Poppy Harlow collapses on live TV
A CNN anchor was suddenly faint and began slurring her words before passing out on live television.

Scary moments unfolded on live television when CNN anchor Poppy Harlow, who is six months pregnant, passed out while on the desk.

Harlow was talking about the war on terror when she began slurring her words. She passed out shortly thereafter.

The anchor returned to the desk later to ease viewer concerns, who took to Twitter to ensure she was alright.

"I got a little hot and I passed out for a moment," Harlow says. "I am fine."

Harlow went to the hospital to check on her condition and that of her baby. The good news is both are fine.
